== Question on adding GNOME-based and others ==

The list mentions MATE (I guess because of it being a GNOME2 fork), but misses Cinnamon .<ref>http://cinnamon.linuxmint.com/</ref>.

Besides the discussions on differences between Window Managers and Desktop Environments, how do you think we should treat forks or alternatives that keep roots in the original project (Cinnamon, or Budgie <ref>https://solus-project.com/budgie/</ref> for GNOME3) or inner variants such as Plasma Active for KDE?

Line 212 ⟶ 220:

Also for the GNOME column the file manager is called Nautilus (Cinnamon calls it Nemo) and the browser is called (or codenamed...) Epiphany. <small><span class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Mitzampt|Mitzampt]] ([[User talk:Mitzampt|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Mitzampt|contribs]]) 18:46, 7 July 2015 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== External links modified ==

Line 229 ⟶ 239:

Please beware of adding too many links in the external links section, per [[Wikipedia:ELMIN]]. Usually only one of two are expected, though in my opinion it would not be unreasonable to increase this slightly in some situations. If the links are to be used in cites then temporarily commenting out in say the reflist might be acceptable very short term, otherwise I'd suggest adding them to the talk page or creating a workpage.
